A 29-year-old was shot twice and died at the Between Rounds bar near Bramble and Whetsel avenue in Madisonville about 10:30 p.m. Friday, police said.

The victim's name has not yet been released.

Police were also investigating two shootings minutes apart in Avondale.

Cincinnati police were first called to the corner of Harvey and Hickory avenues at about 9 p.m. Friday.

Officers said a group of teens were gathered on the corner and an argument began. Police said a man approached the group and asked who was arguing with his sister. When one teen said that it was him, the man shot him in the leg.

The suspect was described as a heavy-set black man in his early 20s with a .45-caliber handgun.

Officers said the teen was taken to UC Medical Center with injuries that were not considered to be life-threatening.

While police were at the scene, they received reports of another shooting in the 300 block of Northern Avenue.

Officers said a 26-year-old woman was shot in the arm. They did not say if they had a suspect, but the victim was not cooperating with the investigation. She was taken to UC Medical Center with injuries that were not considered to be life-threatening.

Police do not believe that the two shootings are related.

Eight people have been shot in Cincinnati in the past 48 hours. Two of the shootings were fatal.

A Mexican photojournalist who left the state he worked in because of threats was among five people found shot to death in a Mexico City apartment this weekend, officials and press freedom advocacy groups said.
